Also, i would greatly appreciate that a prerequisite of such packages
would be to be in the subversion repo on alioth, since it would be
somewhat unfriendly to us to make us responsible of the bug that may be
in the package (as the Maintainer field claims) without the source of
the package being accessible in the canonic way for such packages.
